Alright, fellow punters and golf enthusiasts, hold onto your visors because THE MONEY MAN is diving headfirst into the zany world of Masters betting!
Augusta National is about to witness a spectacle like no other, and we’re here to dish out the insider scoop with a healthy dose of humour and irreverence. So, grab your lucky golf balls and let’s tee off!
Scottie Scheffler
This guy’s been hitting greens like it’s his day job. Seriously, if he can just get that putter to cooperate, he’ll be cruising down Magnolia Lane for a second helping of that sweet Green Jacket.
Jon Rahm
The defending champ is back in town, folks! Sure, he’s been hobnobbing around with LIV Golf, but don’t underestimate this Spanish sensation. He’s got more talent than a bag full of lucky charms.
Xander Schauffele
Missed the cut last time? No problemo! Schauffele’s got the skills and the swagger to make a splash at Augusta. He’s like a golfer on a mission, and that mission involves one thing: victory.
Wyndham Clark
Rookie alert! This newbie’s got no glaring weaknesses and a solid putter to boot. Watch out, folks, we might just witness history in the making.
Rory McIlroy
From tee to green, McIlroy’s a force to be reckoned with. But can he roll in those 30-footers when it counts? Hey, stranger things have happened at Augusta.
Patrick Cantlay
Don’t sleep on Cantlay, folks. He’s been lurking in the shadows, waiting for his moment to shine. Sure, he’s had his struggles, but who hasn’t? It’s all about timing, baby.
Ludvig Åberg
Another rookie in the mix! This young Swede’s got the potential to shake things up. Watch out, Augusta, there’s a new kid on the block.
Joaquin Niemann
The man’s on fire! With wins under his belt and strokes gained stats through the roof, Niemann’s a force to be reckoned with. Augusta, prepare to be dazzled.
Brooks Koepka
“Big Bad Brooks” is in the house, folks. And when this guy’s on, he’s unstoppable. Could we see another Green Jacket draped over those broad shoulders? Don’t bet against it.
Jordan Spieth
Ah, Augusta’s golden boy. Spieth practically owns this place, and he’s hungry for more. Will he add another chapter to his Masters legacy? You better believe it.
Max Homa
Poor record at Augusta? Meh, no biggie. Homa’s a solid putter and ball-striker, and he’s itching for redemption. Watch out, folks, this could be his year.
Hideki Matsuyama
We’ve seen what Matsuyama can do, and let’s just say, it’s impressive. Don’t count him out, folks. He’s got the talent and the drive to make waves at Augusta.
Brian Harman
Lefties tend to do well at Augusta, and Harman’s no exception. He’s a fearless killer on the course, and he’s hungry for that Green Jacket.
Tony Finau
Finau’s been knocking on the door of Masters glory for years, and this might just be his time to shine. With a stellar track record at Augusta, he’s a serious contender.
Viktor Hovland
Hovland may not be at the top of his game, but hey, stranger things have happened. Don’t sleep on this Norwegian sensation.
Matt Fitzpatrick
Inconsistency be damned! Fitzpatrick’s putting and shot-making skills make him a serious threat at Augusta. Keep an eye on this Englishman, folks.
Sahith Theegala
Solid year so far for Theegala, and he’s hungry for more. Could we see another chip-in birdie on 16? Anything’s possible at Augusta.
Cameron Young
Putting may be his achilles’ heel, but Young’s got the skills to pay the bills. Watch out for this bomber from Westchester.
Shane Lowry
The Irishman’s got a knack for Augusta, and with his ball-striking prowess, he’s a serious contender. Putter, don’t fail him now!
Collin Morikawa
Two-time Major champ in a bit of a slump? Hey, it happens to the best of us. But Morikawa’s got the talent to bounce back. Keep an eye on this guy, folks.
Dustin Johnson
DJ’s shattered records at Augusta before, and he’s hungry for more. Could we see another dominant performance from the big man? Don’t count him out
Cameron Smith
The Aussie’s got a putting game that’s smoother than a pint of Guinness. Watch out, Augusta, Smith’s coming for that Green Jacket.
Bryson DeChambeau
Augusta may be a par-67 in Bryson’s mind, but he’s gonna need more than just big swings to conquer this beast. Still, never count out the mad scientist of golf.
Sam Burns
Burns may have lost his spark lately, but don’t write him off just yet. He’s got the putting chops to make some noise at Augusta.
Tyrrell Hatton
Hatton’s got the experience and the ball-striking skills to make a run at Augusta. Keep your eyes peeled for this Englishman, folks. He’s got a trick or two up his sleeve.
